Upz.

Those Toyu type. You can get from Sim Lim Towel or Kelantan Lane hardware shops. kDk is too big.

Impressive. Thx for sharing.

Hi Simon, Without exhaust, then i suggest you cannot put the tempered glass, as it will be too hot and the hot air has no where to go. Alternatively. Try to put 2 or 3 fans above the water surface and below the reflectors so that at least the surface of the water will be cool. Tempered glass i got from my friend. Will have to check with him where he got it from.

Simon, Mine is alot bigger than yours. and not mini version. At 400W as compared to 250W, which is hotter? With 3 nos 400w, and in a totally enclosed hood. Definitely it will be hot inside and generate heat to the water surface. I do not know yours, maybe you can post a pic of your DIY one. My luminarc with 2 openings for intake of air and exhaust of hot air. I put a round duct attached to the opening, leaving the other open without any duct. (see picture attached previously) This duct run and attached on the top of the hood with an exhaust fan. Everytime the timer on the MH, the fan also turn on. Hence it suck the hot air continueously. Definitely there are changes in brightness and heat generated. Previously, using normal Spider reflectors. I need 3 nos 400W and 2 nos 250W to cover all the area. Now only need 3 nos 400W to cover. and with quite min gap in between. Tempered glass can be purchase from those glass hardware shop. When i bought it, it doesnt comes with it. But there is a gap in the reflector to slot this glass in. I tried to get least thickness glass. But in the market only min tempered glass is 4mm. So got to live with it. After putting this glass, the whole reflector is heavy. Better secured it properly. The usefulness of glass is to prevent the heat to the water and of course you must have a exhaust fan to pull the air out from the reflector. so the reflector will at least be warm not hot.

Then you better ask him stop following me. It confuse me too.

Putting a 4mm tempered glass will be better and with the duct and fan, the hot air will be drawn out with min escape. Best of all, no hot air above the water surface.

And whenever i wall along the walkway of those 3 exhaust fans (3 luminarcs), I can feel the heat. But not too bad as the air is drawn out to from those enclosed hood.

Hearsay hearsay. Luminarc generate more lighting output but also generate more heat. I have to put exhaust fans and duct attached to pull out those heat from it.

I cut and take out my deltec CR micro filter and ball valve, giving a smooth high flow to my CR. Till now, no choking.

Buy angels.. Big tanks without angels is like a waste. Bought a few recently but that @#$%& elbli angel peck at my green birdnest. No choice liao. Have to live with it. But the rest so far not naughty. Blue face not naughty lah. Only thing is when grow big. maybe a headache. Need alot of swimming space so will never peck or worst knock down corals.

You never know hor. But with 15mm and the 4 blazing around it should be safe mah. ALso those silicon must be ensure that they are cured 3 to 4 times. Not do all at 1 go. 6ft to 8ft, maybe 19mm lah. but 5ft 12mm quite thin. Rescape can be because of 1. Wow, so ugly, need to adjust this rock to there, and this to here. Maybe creat more space for this large table (special) here. 2. Opps i put the wrong fish, and implusive buying. all my sps got eaten. Need to catch that fellow. 3. That irritating crabs, i must get rid of, seems never ending. 4. Wow, so many algaes from this bloody LR, regret buying cheap LR. Hope i purchased those $16 to $18 per kg. 5. New reefing method. Maybe my corals not so colourful enough, need to try this, but must need to remove the LR 1st. Well, all this i may have think of. With that 2 bars over it.. Only you can put in small rocks. Not large one. Small rocks will not be stable especially for the base structure.

Sometimes, not only the CR choked. The CO2 cylinder empty. and then the pH rise even without you knowing it. Best to have a pH controller with alarm setting of high and low level.

If for me, i will go for 15mm thick glass and with that added stability, the centre 2 euro blazing can be remove. Hence i will have easy maintenance. and lighting will not be block by these 2 centre glass blocks. Even rescaping will be easy.

Spending on tank is more important than having equipment. Build slowly lah bro. If not regret later.

IMO. Thickness should be 15mm. The 2 center euro blazing should be remove for easy maintenance.

Wanted Regal angel... ANybody saw it. I want the Red sea type.

Impressive.. Thickness of the glass?

Check your Ca Reactor. kH at 8.4 can also do well for sps. Just that drop too fast. Best is maintain at 11.2 to 11.6. It always happen. 2 possibilities. 1. Ca Reactor choked. 2. pH in Ca Reactor rise, due to insufficient CO2.

Tornado Beckett 24. USed for only 1 week. Not too many space to keep this spare. so have to make way.

Not only cover the tub lah. Since cooking must have cooking style mah. Why not put a heater below and boil it? It will be much effective in removing all nutrient and unwanted pests.
